Some have described my style as “simple savvy sophistication.” I absolutely LOVE that characterization because if there’s one thing I’m not, it’s fussy. Looks that are effortless really resonate with me. And, when I’m searching for inspiration, I want to see outfits I can actually envision myself wearing.

A favorite pastime for me is scouring Pinterest and Instagram for looks that move me. Too often, I come up short because many of the styles I see are so “specific” to a particular person. It makes me feel as though I’m “copying” them, or I have a hard time imagining how to incorporate the pieces they’re wearing into my own wardrobe.

While I’m a big proponent of signature style, it has to look and feel authentic. That’s what the SisterLadyGirl blog is all about; showing grown, classy and sassy ladies that being a stylish standout doesn’t have to be complicated.

Recently, one of my blog’s readers, Andresea Jackson over at More than a Mom, sent in a photo showing me how she replicated some of the looks I’d posted previously. Even though she was inspired by my style, the looks she created were all her own. I think she nailed it! Tell me in the comments below if you agree. And, while you’re at it, I’d love to hear about the kinds of looks that inspire you! Maybe I’ll even style a few of your favorites. *wink*
